People's in COPSS

COPSS consist of diverse expertise in the faculty!
Madam Izyan our in-house biostatistian.

We are lucky to have her share her knowledge in biostatistics in the previous series of Wisdom Wednesday but let's get to know Izyan Hazwani Baharuddin more.

Based at our Sungai Buloh Campus, Izyan is our go-to expert for all things Medical Statistics. Whether she's helping students navigate research designs or deep-diving into data analysis, she brings a wealth of knowledge from her BSc in Biomedical Sciences (IIUM) and MSc in Medical Statistics (USM). 📊📚
Beyond the numbers, she’s passionate about improving dental education and understanding dental anxiety—helping make the dentist's chair a little less scary for everyone!

🥗💬 COPSS Department Meeting & Potluck Gathering 💬🥗
Organized by the Centre of Preclinical Science Studies (COPSS)

A productive discussion with a delicious twist! 😋

Our latest department meeting brought together the members of COPSS to reflect on our recent events, discuss future directions, and plan upcoming initiatives to strengthen our academic and research impact. 🌿📚

What made this meeting extra special was the potluck-style gathering — where everyone contributed something homemade (or lovingly bought!) while sharing ideas, laughter, and camaraderie. 🫶 It was a great opportunity to catch up with colleagues and reconnect despite our busy schedules.

Moments like these remind us that teamwork, communication, and a little bit of good food go a long way in keeping our department strong and inspired. 💪❤️

🦷✨ Welcoming Our New Year 1 Dental Students! ✨🦷
Organized by the Centre of Preclinical Science Studies (COPSS)

On 9th October 2025, we had the pleasure of welcoming our bright and enthusiastic Year 1 Bachelor of Dental Surgery students in a fun and interactive way! 🎉

The session began with a warm introduction to the department by our Head, Ts. Dr. Norhayati Liaqat Ali Khan who shared insights into the important role of preclinical sciences in building a strong foundation for every future dentist. 🧠💡

Then came the exciting part — students were divided into groups and given a unique task:
📚 To find reference books for their assigned subjects, both physically and online,
📸 To locate the respective lecturers and take a creative photo with them!

It was truly a “kill two birds with one stone” activity — not only did our students learn how to search for reliable academic resources, but they also had the chance to personally meet and connect with their lecturers. The event was filled with laughter, teamwork, and memorable moments that marked a wonderful start to their dental journey! 💬🤝

A big thank you to all the lecturers and students for making this activity such a success. Here’s to a great beginning and an exciting academic year ahead! 🌟

🎓 Scientific Wednesday: Personal Development Series 🎓
Organized by the Centre of Preclinical Science Studies (COPSS)

We were honoured to host Prof. Gabriele Ruth for two inspiring online sessions under our Scientific Wednesday: Personal Development Series — a platform dedicated to nurturing personal and academic growth among our faculty members and students. 🌟

💡 Session 1: “Develop Yourself, To Be a Better Researcher” (8 October 2025)
Prof. Gabriele shared her invaluable insights on how self-awareness, discipline, and passion shape a researcher’s journey. Her stories reminded us that great science begins with great character.

💡 Session 2: “Planning a Research Project in Your Area of Interest & How to Find the Funding for It” (15 October 2025)
Participants learned practical strategies for identifying research gaps, designing impactful projects, and navigating the world of research funding — straight from someone with years of rich experience and success.

Both sessions saw enthusiastic participation not only from our department but also from colleagues across the Faculty of Dentistry — proof that the spirit of lifelong learning and collaboration is alive and thriving at UiTM! 💪✨

Let’s continue to grow, stay curious, and be inspired to become better researchers and better versions of ourselves. 🌿🔬

And that’s not all — more exciting sessions are coming soon as part of our Scientific Wednesday: Personal Development Series! So stay tuned and keep an eye out for the next opportunity to learn from the best. 👀📚
